great weekend for high school sports. if your team or school is in the playoffs, it makes it even more special. i enjoy this sport season mainly because everything is being played outside and we know what is on the way ( hint: the kids won’t shovel it ). let’s remember it is a game, be supportive, bite your tongue if things do not go your way. these moments are once in a lifetime but the memories last forever, good or bad.
Well said butkus. HS playoffs are a fun way to wrap up the fall.
middlebury will give hartford a run for their money. After midd just barley slipped by colchester on a recovered fumble in the end zone off a bad punt 14 – 7, then dominated BFA 18 – 7… hartford better not be thinking they won already just because they beat SB by a huge score
Any word on the championship schedule yet? Hoping D1 is the afternoon game…
Not yet. I will post when the times are available.
